Scalix Forums

I have tried bringing up a listing of all of our user accounts by using the * wildcard. What the address book shows is everyone in the system up to the letter E and then stops. Is there a limitation on the number of addresses that can be displayed at one time?

Hi. Yes, there is a limit, but you can change it. To do that, logon to your Scalix server and edit the /etc/opt/scalix/webmail/partner.xml file. Search for the line:

<ldapSources>

and change it to:



where nnnn is the maximum entries you want returned from all of your LDAP sources during a single search. For example, if you want to return 1000 entries, the line would be:



Next, search for the line:

<address_search>

and right after that, insert the line:

<limit>nnn</limit>

so that it looks like:

where nnn is the maximum entries you want returned from this particular LDAP source (in this case, it's the Scalix LDAP service).

One caveat about making these values very large. This will impact the performance of your Scalix server if people are doing * searches in the Address Book.

Thanks,

Thank for the quick response/fix.
